Hi there Starfire, living about 5 blocks down from Calle Ocho, where an original Fritas place is, I decided to try my hand at it, so I used your recipe as a stepping stone. I used all beef ground beef, chorizo, & instead of breadcrumbs I used saltines (that is the way we used to do it Cuba), used the same spices as well as smoked Spanish paprika & this is certainly not Cuban I used steak sauce, as well as everything you used. But the frita always has a mound of shoestring potatoes and is always is wrapped in some kind of white paper that is not wax or parchment. PS - they were awsome - oh yes they tasted just like they did in Cuba. They are usually served on something like a hamburger bun but not quite. Anyway - we had fun recreating and of course eating with corn on the cob and the usual salads. Thanks for posting, Manami ;)
